The dates for our 22nd Annual Shades of Summer Art Show and Sale are 11-19 August 2012.

I hope to you will be able to come out and enjoy the art.

24th Annual Among Friends Art Show and Sale

Today was the opening of our show and it was a hot, sunny day and turned very humid in the afternoon.

With is being the first long holiday weekend of the season, most people were busy buying plants at the plant sale as well as many of the delicious home baked goods to take back to the cottage. Because of this we didn't have a large turnout but it was an enjoyable day.

Simon, one of the photographers from the Lakefield Herald came in to cover our show and took photographs of the art exhibited and some of the members of the Group.

Last night we set up the tables and the smaller panels for the 24th Annual Among Friends Art Show and Sale to be held at St. Matthew's Anglican Church in Buckhorn, Ontario.

Today we are setting up the rest of the panels and hanging our artwork.
